How To Permanently Scan To A Folder In Ricoh Aficio C4500

Hi, to set up scanning to a folder, you will first need to create and share a folder on your computer. The procedure for doing that depends on what type of operating system you are using (Windows XP, Windows Server 2012, Mac OS X 10.8, etc.). Basically you will need to create a folder to scan to, and then share it and give at least one user account permission to read and write to that folder. This article will show you how to do that in Windows XP:

Once you have set up the folder, this article will guide you through linking to the folder from your MFP:

After everything is set up, follow these steps to scan a document or image to your folder:

- Press the Scanner button
- Place your document(s) in the document feeder or on the glass
- Select the Folder tab, if it isn't already selected
- Select your folder from the list of programmed destinations, or enter a new one using the Manual Entry button
- Press the Start button

To set scan to folder as the default (instead of scan to email) go to User Tools/Counter > Scanner Features, and under the General tab, select Folder for the destination list priority setting.
